Lionel Messi BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

This has been a remarkable week for Lionel Messi. On July 19th, Messi delivered yet another masterclass, scoring twice and notching two assists in Inter Miami’s emphatic 5-1 win over the New York Red Bulls. CBS News Miami confirms it was his sixth multi-goal performance in his last seven games, and Messi’s numbers now have him among the MLS elite—he’s just become the fifth player in history to reach at least 35 goals and 25 assists over a two-year span, joining names like Robbie Keane and Carlos Vela. That’s not just stats padding for a legend winding down his career—he’s shaping the history of the league. The victory also helped Inter Miami bounce back after a tough 3-0 midweek loss to FC Cincinnati, and Messi’s influence on the game was once again decisive.

The assist to Jordi Alba during Saturday’s match was not just a sweet pass; it marked the extension of Messi’s extraordinary streak of 30 or more goal contributions in 19 consecutive calendar years. That run stretches all the way back to 2006, before even the first iPhone. According to World Soccer Talk, Messi now has 24 goals and 8 assists in just 29 appearances this season, averaging more than a goal contribution per game—a striking stat for a player who celebrated his 38th birthday last month.

Messi’s presence has interwoven with his iconic teammates, including Luis Suarez and Jordi Alba, rekindling the chemistry reminiscent of their Barcelona days. His two goals against New York—one a silky breakaway, the other a clinical left-footed strike—have been widely shared on social media and featured in MLS and FOX Soccer highlights, reinforcing his status as Inter Miami’s headline act.

Business-wise, Messi remains a magnet for brand attention and remains the global face of Inter Miami’s Leagues Cup campaign, with eyes turning toward the club’s July 30 clash against Atlas. Socially, Messi continues to be a sensation; the victory photo from the 2022 World Cup is still the most liked post in Instagram history, per Captions, and his current MLS exploits keep fan pages buzzing. Regarding rumors, FC Barcelona Fans Nation warns fans against fake direct messages circulating online, confirming through Messi’s management that these are false.

At 38, Messi isn’t slowing—he’s rewriting expectations of athletic longevity, securing more records, and making headlines not just for his past, but for what he’s accomplishing right now.
